Throwback Thursday is only fun when you dig deep down in the vault into unknown territory. This week, we did just that with some of our favorite celebrities.

While we’ve always assumed these stars showed some promise at a young age, it’s bewildering to actually watch and listen to supercelebs like Beyonce, Leonardo DiCaprio, Steph Curry, and Kanye West do their thing prior to fame. Their star quality was always right there – it was undeniable, even way back when.

As a teen, Kim Kardashian all but predicted her fame. During his first television appearance, Jay Z seemed to not have a care in the world while rhyming on cue. At 9 years old, Drake was singing and rapping his heart out just like he is right now at this point in his career (video above).

It was written. Without further ado…
